Cleaner production is an integrated preventive environmental strategy intended to minimize
waste and emissions and maximize product output. The mining industry continually supplies …

Over the past few decades, as demand for minerals and metals has increased, the amount
and volume of wastes and tailings has also increased dramatically. The management and …

Aiming at the utilization of regional mining wastes including iron tailings sand and coal
gangue (CG), a novel coal gangue-filled backfill (CGFB) is proposed in this paper, which is …

Studies have shown that iron tailings (IOT) have potential activity and can be used to
prepare cementitious materials to replace cement. The purpose of this study was to evaluate …

A full understanding of the mechanical response of cemented tailings backfill (CTB) under
various loading scenarios is beneficial for mining engineering applications. This study …

The unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of alkali-activated slag (AAS)-based cemented
paste backfill (CPB) is influenced by multiple design parameters. However, the experimental …

In this study, strength and microstructural development of full (FT) and coarse sulphidic
tailings (CT) cemented paste backfill (CPB) produced from sodium-silicate activated slag …

This study investigates the time-dependent rheological behavior of cemented paste backfill
(CPB) that contains alkali-activated slag (AAS) as a binder. Rheological measurements with …

The strength comparison of cement paste backfill (CPB) in situ and laboratory exhibit
contrary results both in some publications and case-based data. Based on this issue, this …

This study presents the utilisation of finely ground construction and demolition waste (CDW)
as partial replacement (5–15 wt.%) to sulphide tailings on the short-and long-term strength …
